About the role

Vivax is a Turkish medical-AI company building clinical world models, a native medical large language model, surgical intelligence, smart campus systems and digital health products. As a software development intern you will build the production systems that connect Vivax's AI to real hospital infrastructure, from HL7 FHIR APIs and EHR connector middleware to the clinical dashboards physicians use every day.

• Design and optimize PostgreSQL schemas with Drizzle ORM and handle performance-critical queries on clinical datasets
• Contribute to the hospital onboarding pipeline: device provisioning, tenant setup and monitoring dashboards
• Take part in code reviews and architecture decisions on production systems

Required profile

• Comfortable with TypeScript and at least one modern frontend framework (React preferred)
• Interest in healthcare data standards (HL7 FHIR, DICOM); deep expertise not required, as training is provided
• Care for clean code, testing and disciplined Git hygiene
• Bonus: experience with healthcare system integrations, Mirth Connect, HL7 v2 messaging or FHIR-compatible systems

Required skills

• TypeScript
• REST APIs and relational databases (PostgreSQL a plus)
